Legalization

July 30, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

One day we’ll look back and gawk at the strange police state we’re living in. For the record, I kind of hate smoking pot. Calls attention to my – and everyone else’s – weird insecurities. Maybe I’ll get over that in a thousand years.

Crazy Osmonds

July 30, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

Put this on my old blog back in the day, but this song pretty much rules.

I don’t have any great beef with the Mormon church. Despite some strangeness and incongruity in their beliefs (Jesus visiting America), they’re mainly relegated to Utah.  Mitt Romney isn’t going anywhere.  I looked up Mormon and horses and [...]

Jesuspam

From my inbox, via Youtube:
Hey there, Friend !

Do you know that after you die, you will have to spend the
ETERNITY in Heaven or HELL ?
There is no other place…

Have you ever think about this ?

Speculative Fiction

July 29, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

More Alex Jones madness – again linked by the Drudge Report, which I find interesting because Jones is such a rabid Bush-hater.
It was 2017. Clans were governing America.
The first clans organized around local police forces. The conservatives’ war on crime during the late 20th century and the Bush/Obama war on terror during [...]

Huxley vs. Orwell

July 29, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

This is awesome, so I’m stealing it – from here, originated here. Turns out, they were both right.

Kindle Author

July 29, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

New interview with me at the Kindle Author blog.  For some reason, this escaped me in other interviews, but it’s true.
The plot came about in a dream—no kidding. The book’s in part about a writer working on a novel who starts dreaming about people who turn out to be real. In the dreams he’ll see [...]

Left Behind

July 28, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

A confession – I have only read pieces of the Left Behind books.  I still might try to absorb the whole thing, but there’s something about the prose that’s just asking me not to read it.  The emptiness is so thick I find it hard to pay attention. There’s bad prose and then there’s [...]

Revolution

July 27, 2010Henry Baum 2 Comments »

John Lennon:
Ah, sure, ‘Revolution’ . There were two versions of that song but the underground left only picked up on the one that said ‘count me out’. The original version which ends up on the LP said ‘count me in’ too; I put in both because I wasn’t sure. There was a third version that [...]

Three Stories

July 27, 2010Henry Baum No Comments »

Three stories which outline why the political climate is totally fucked.
Glenn Beck’s Incendiary Angst Is Dangerously Close to Having a Body Count
On his Monday radio show, Glenn Beck highlighted claims that before he started targeting a little-known, left-leaning organization called the Tides Foundation on his Fox News TV show, “nobody knew” what the [...]
